NSW Cyber Security Policy Compliance Assessments – 2019 & 2020

The Client

A number of NSW based State Government agencies, and some Local government and Public health sector clients.

The Objective

In 2019 Cyber Security NSW published the Cyber Security Policy (CSP). All State Government agencies are mandated to assess and report, on an annual basis, their compliance to the standards established within the CSP. While not mandatory, a number of Local Government clients also chose to assess their organisations’ maturity against the CSP as well.

Centropy's Approach

Centropy consultants worked with a range of clients to support the assessment and reporting requirements. The CSP standards are designed to comprehensive assess the maturity of an organisation’s cyber security controls ranging from Senior executive buy-in and support, to existence and adherence of an ISMS, to compliance with ACSC Essential 8 stipulations as well as the overall culture and awareness, within the organisation, of Cyber Security threats and risks and desirable recommended behaviours.
